 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi, my name is Agnes. I'm 20 years old.
I've been skiing for 10 years. Now I've got Fischer RX6 Fire FTI (2008) but I'm looking for some new skis.
What would you recommend me?

Get to a demo or any ski shop that allows demos, try your mates and ski as many as you can and buy what makes you grin. Ski advice is based largely on personal opinions, not what suits you.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Aga,
Also take into account the type of skiing you do. Is it mainly piste, off piste, park etc. This will determine the category of ski you need to get.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I prefer piste. I like advanced ski slope.

Aga, Ellis Brigham have demo events coming up. This Saturday in Milton Keynes. You'd have a chance to try all of their piste skis. If you can't do Sat in MK, Tamworth is on Wednesday the Castleford the following Saturday.
Even though snow domes only allow limited testing it's much better than buying blind.

Aga,
There are lots to choose from. I would go with Dots original suggestion, get a demo at a ski shop, you can try several pairs, work out what you prefer (I've done this a couple of times, I've always been happy with the test and final decision)
Do you want to stay with Fischer, or do you not mind?
